A couple of months ago he said this:

"I'm too old to sacrifice a season," said Nowitzki

And he is obviously too old to sacrifice the next season...or two.

Dirk's opinion is pretty clear to me. He wants a star NOW and he wants to play on a contender.

If Cuban does not land a star and we end up with an average team, Dirk will accept it, he will continue to play for the MAVS, but it will be pretty much an horror scenario for him. And in 2yrs he will retire with a bitter taste in his mouth.... (~10yrs without all star teammate and having been given no chance to repeat)
